RT — ‘We should not confuse int’l order with American one’: Russian defense minister to US counterpart
Russia and China put the US is on notice that if it attempts to force imposition of US rules, war will be the outcome.
Russian humor: “Maybe it is time for the Pentagon to change something in that ‘strategy’? In order not justify in front of every microphone its failures by blaming everything on Russia, China and other countries with an independent outlook”.
On so many levels the US and Russia talk past one another because they both refuse to even acknowledge or engage facts in their respective framing. Frustrating to read or listen to an irresistible force, immovable object argument. Different planets.
